The Mac & Forth Show 344 - Grand Theft AirTag

Another week has passed so Alan, Steve, and Karl return with their usual technology and Apple-related news. The NYPD plans to use AirTags to combat car theft. Apple and Google have collaborated to notify people if an unknown tracker is detected on them. Apple Savings is reportedly gaining popularity. Apple has dropped its lawsuit against a former employee. The ongoing issue of "Batterygate" continues to be a headache for Apple. There is a new malware threat circulating. In addition, macOS and iOS have received security updates, while new firmware updates have been released for most of the AirPods. All this, and slightly more, on this week’s episode.
